DRA stuff

Updated map of current 2012/2016 PVI data available in DRA

[America Needs a 13-6 Progressive SCOTUS]

Still none of the single district states

Makes me worried that there are no plans for those.

Well to be honest you'd expect them to be last states to be added given that those states, bar Montana, have no chance of gaining a second Congressional District anytime soon, so the PVI would have no use for realistic plans, however I fully expect them to be added given that having 7 states without data for all eternity would be unacceptable to a great many of its user base.

A West Virginia plan using 2020 population estimates, considering that the state is likely to lose a District.

Current PVI of Redrawn Districts:

1: R+19.18
2: R+19.75

[Kamala]

It's possible to draw a very competitive, urban district outside of Philly and Pittsburgh metros and NE PA:
R+1.

When will the new estimates for 2020 population replace the old estimates?

[muon2]

Last decade they used 2008 estimates in the map, but never projected them to 2010. DRA also only used the county estimates, so they spread the population changes equally to all precincts in each county. If they do the same this decade, I expect 2018 estimates appearing in the summer of 2019, but no 2020 projections.

How do we make DRA work in the new Firefox?

You don't.

What's needed is a DRA 3.0 that'll work with HTML5 browsers. Data updates to a sinking ship hardly seems that important.

What would the most pro-Dem gerrymander possible look like for West Virginia?

Firefox Extended Release doesn't work?

String together Morgantown and the collection of more dem voting counties all the way down to Mingo County. Split Kanawha.

That's not the new Firefox. One of the joys of DRA was that anyone could use it. No one who's not already a devoted election map geek is gonna go to the bother of installing an old version of a browser just to run DRA. By the time the 2020 Census data is ready, and preferably sooner, we need a DRA anyone can use again.

Not disagreeing. But for those in the know, they can easily download extended release and use that until that stops working, no?

Without people being able to easily experiment with it, the group of people in the know will only shrink.  I no longer bother with DRA because it's not worth the hassle to me as it currently exists.

For all what's worth the latest version of Internet Explorer is bundled with every copy of Windows (even Windows 10) and still works fine.

Then again, I don't think many people use Internet Explorer to begin with. Especially not now that Edge seems the preferred bundled browser from Microsoft.

[Dr. MB]

Redrawing Oregon's CDs so they make a bit more sense.

District 1 (Blue): D+6
District 2 (Purple): R+11
District 3 (Green): D+28
District 4 (White): D+1
District 5 (Red): R+2

So, 1 likely D district, 1 strong D district, 1 strong R district, and two swing districts.

is there any quick tool to convert the drf files into svg files?

[America Needs a 13-6 Progressive SCOTUS]

Theoretical 3D-2R IA Gerrymander + no Counties split.

The Cyan District was extremely close in 2008; McCain edges out Obama by 80 votes.

Red, Green, and Blue have Dem PVI.

Cyan and Magenta have Rep PVI.

[America Needs a 13-6 Progressive SCOTUS]

I managed to get the population deviations lower.

[Keep cool-idge]

Can someone please tell me how to run DRA I can’t seem to find an answer help.
